For years one of the cool things of working on the LES was Zito's space on Ludlow Street. Outside his gallery there was always art on the street -- mostly portraits on a variety of found materials. Zito always welcomed my students into his oasis. Along with so much of the LES, Zito's space has been a casualty of gentrification, and I miss it. But through August, a series of his work can be viewed on the walls inside the first floor of the Abrons Arts Center. All are painted in hi-gloss enamel on found materials.
